Abstract A univariate structural time series model based on the traditional decomposition into trend, seasonal and irregular components is defined. number of methods computing maximum likelihood estimators are then considered. These include direct maximization various domain function. The asymptotic properties given a comparison between in terms computational efficiency accuracy made. extended to models with explanatory variables.

The letter notes that a generalized RESET test can be employed as for misspecification in variety of parametric and semi-parametric micro-econometric models. test's performance is illustrated using three models commonly used labour supply studies: the linear, censored (Tobit), duration (Weibull) regression All are estimated by fully (maximum likelihood) semiparametric methods. Comments provided on finite sample test.

Abstract Using a sample of male and female workers from the 1992 Employment in Britain survey, we estimate generalised grouped zero‐inflated Poisson regression model employees' self‐reported lateness. Lateness is higher for males, private sector service industries. Reflecting theoretical predictions both psychology economics, lateness as function incentives, monitoring of, sanctions for, within workplace, job satisfaction attitudes to work.

Previous research has shown that people who are in poverty live deprived neighbourhoods. Ethnic minority groups more likely than the White majority to be poor and such areas. The likelihood of being may reduced by having access mixed social networks. But, for those living neighbourhoods there neither opportunities nor resources form maintain networks terms their ethnic or geographic composition. This paper tests this contention, UK. Specifically, we use UK's largest household survey examine...

Abstract Background Deep Learning opens up opportunities for routinely scanning large bodies of biomedical literature and clinical narratives to represent the meaning terms. However, validation integration this knowledge on a scale requires cross checking with ground truths (i.e. evidence-based resources) that are unavailable in an actionable or computable form. In paper we explore how turn information about diagnoses, prognoses, therapies other concepts into using free-text data human...

When values of regressors are symmetrically disposed, many M -estimators in a wide class models have reflection property, namely, that as the signs coefficients on reversed, their estimators' sampling distribution is reflected about origin. zero, sign reversal can no effect. So this case, regression coefficient estimators symmetric median unbiased and, when moments exist, exactly uncorrelated with other parameters. The result unusual it does not require response variates to conditional...

The current growth of biomedical knowledge is increasing the demand from user community to automate conversion free text into a ontology. Thus ontology learning frameworks are gaining momentum as potential candidates alleviate overload information. Unfortunately problem at hand with these scalability in terms computing resources, processing power and time required for experts trained terminologists who use frameworks. research study aims tackle difficulties low-level parallel distributed...

How to treat a disease remains be the most common type of clinical question. Obtaining evidence-based answers from biomedical literature is difficult. Analogical reasoning with embeddings deep learning (embedding analogies) may extract such facts, although state-of-the-art focuses on pair-based proportional (pairwise) analogies as man:woman::king:queen ("queen = -man +king +woman").
